Re: [Help] How to make own samp plugins - Raimis_R - 21.04.2011

God i hate responses like this, its really a shame to see that this great community has almost no support for plugin development.


You can find the SDK+a helloworld plugin as an example/base plugin: http://forum.sa-mp.com/showpost.php?...7&postcount=18.


You can learn more about the plugin SDK by reading through the implementers guide. It covers pretty much everything you need (you just have to skip through the junk...i find the extension modules section the most helpful): http://www.compuphase.com/pawn/Pawn_...nter_Guide.pdf


Mess around with the helloworld plugin for a bit and get a feel for it, and make sure you look up everything you dont understand! You can always post a topic here, or try PMing me for help (keep in mind, im still sort of a novice as well).


Edit: This assumes you know at least SOME c/c++ ... if not, check out http://www.cplusplus.com/. Thats the best site to learn from IMO (http://www.cprogramming.com/ isnt bad either though).

Eh guys, it clearly says this board is for releases AND discussion, also the rules state you can ask for help with plugin development. Which he did..

(sorry for offtopic, although topic starter has his answer, I just like to point it out).

Re: [Help] How to make own samp plugins - Raimis_R - 21.04.2011

Mr.Playbox...
he post:

Yes this board its for helping and developing plugins but not teachin HOW TO Create Plugin.
Look at this:

https://sampforum.blast.hk/showthread.php?tid=69699

If you have no prior C/C++ experience there are plenty of tutorials you can read/do on ****** before attempting plugin coding.

This is answer

Re: [Help] How to make own samp plugins - playbox12 - 21.04.2011

Mr.Raimis....

He never stated he had no C/C++ experience. He asked for help to make plugins for sa-mp for example getting a link to the SDK that he needs to get started.

Why doesn't kye create a Programming forum? A lot of people wants to create his first own plugin.
Or kye doesn't want that we learn.

Re: [Help] How to make own samp plugins - Vince - 21.04.2011

I have to agree on this one. I know basic C/C++, but I have absolutely no idea where to start coding a plugin, because there's absolutely no documentation available at all.

---

Re: [Help] How to make own samp plugins - Kyosaur - 21.04.2011

I provided links on the previous page, thats a GREAT place to start. There is documentation available, its just not on this forum; The implementors guide covers almost everything you will need for plugin development (which is included in the links i provided).

If you get stuck, feel free to make a post in this section or even PM me (Im still getting used to the SDK though, so you're probably better off making a post).

Re: [Help] How to make own samp plugins - CatFish - 22.04.2011

How are plugins beneficial? im not saying they are not just wondering.

---

Re: [Help] How to make own samp plugins - admantis - 22.04.2011

They use to be faster, and more efficent.

---

Re: [Help] How to make own samp plugins - Kyosaur - 22.04.2011

Thats not really accurate at all, it really depends on the code itself. I've written test plugins that were beat by PAWN scripts speed wise.


Plugins just add functionality that is not available in PAWN, ie the IRC/MySQL plugins; this doesnt mean that plugins CANT beat PAWN scripts or anything (look at the streamer plugin!), its just not ALWAYS the case.

---

Re: [Help] How to make own samp plugins - admantis - 22.04.2011

Indeed, but let's take this example, the sscanf stock or plugin version, it's obvious which is faster. The plugins may re-create a PAWN script and improve it, or enhance the current possibilities within the PAWN boundaries, and what you said.
